From this morning's Shelf Awareness:
Notes: Bookstore Educational Competition 101
Borders Group is increasing its discount to educators, including teachers, home schoolers and librarians, for books, music CDs, toys and games for classroom use to 25% from 20%. In addition, during educator appreciation week--September 29-October 7--the discount increases to 30% and can be for personal use too.The company has also established Teaching Zone sections in its superstores, which feature educational workbooks, curriculum development books, inspirational narratives as well as many non-book items such as stickers and classroom decor products. The sections are next to the children's departments.At the same time, Barnes & Noble has added B&N@school, a new section that provides access to educational tools for parents, teachers and librarians at B&N stores and at Barnes & Noble.com. The educator discount program, which gives 20% discounts, now applies at B&N.com, too.
Good to know for the few times I am not using the library - also a great resource for kids songbooks.
